From Pearl Harbor to Present: Are We Repeating History?

Could a drone attack on NAS Oceania be our modern-day Pearl Harbor? In this episode of "State of Freedom," we delve into the eerie parallels between historical vulnerabilities and current U.S. military readiness, with expert analysis from Colonel John Mills.

NAS Oceania at Risk: Mills highlights how the administrative arrangement of naval aircraft at Oceania makes them prime targets for drone attacks, akin to the neatly lined up planes at Hickam Field before the Pearl Harbor attack. This peacetime setup leaves us dangerously exposed.

Supply Chain Vulnerabilities: He points out the critical dependency on foreign materials for U.S. military hardware, including the F-35, with numerous components originating from China. This external reliance mirrors the strategic missteps of WWII, where adversaries could potentially disrupt U.S. military capabilities.

The Call for Reshoring: Mills advocates for a massive overhaul in U.S. policy to encourage domestic production. He argues for tax incentives, reduced regulations, and capital gains cuts to make manufacturing in the U.S. viable again, criticizing the current bureaucratic hurdles as self-defeating.

Leadership Contrast: The discussion pivots to how different administrations might address these vulnerabilities. Mills contrasts Trump's potential aggressive approach to national security and economic policy with what he perceives as the current administration's complacency.

As we reflect on these insights, we're compelled to ask: Are we learning from history, or are we doomed to repeat it? How should we secure our military and economic independence in an increasingly volatile world?
